There was a young lady named Peach
Who gave many a very fine speech.
Her great verbal power
Impressed the ivory tower,
But the public she just couldn’t reach!

When a Naughty Young Lady Hiding in Rushes
When a naughty young lady hiding in rushes
Said, “sir, please join me in these bushes”.
I said, “Miss Coral,
I hate to quarrel,
But you are hiding in rushes not bushes!”
Fancied
A soft kiss.
The passing bliss
Of making free
With a fancied she
Who knows not me.
My Interview on Access Radio, an Apology
On 17 May, I posted regarding my interview on Access Radio https://kmorrispoet.com/2022/05/17/my-forthcoming-interview-on-access-radio/. The show was scheduled to air yesterday (Wednesday 18th May). However the broadcast did not take place.
For anyone who tuned in at 9 pm (UK time) yesterday evening, please accept my apologies. I shall contact the producer and ascertain when the programme will be available, and post a link to the podcast once it is online.
Whilst Walking Passed a Newly Dug Grave
Whilst walking passed a newly dug grave
I met an old ghoul named Dave,
Who said, “are you afeared
Of my big bushy beard?”.
I said, “Dave, you really should shave!”.
My Forthcoming Interview on Access Radio
On Wednesday 18 May, I am scheduled to appear on Access Radio, which is hosted by Amy Amantea.
Access Radio is broadcast on Vancouver Co-op Radio, and my interview (which is around an hour in length) is scheduled to be aired at 13:00 (Vancouver time), which equates to 9 pm (UK time).
During my pre-recorded interview, I talk about my life as a blind/visually impaired person in the UK. In addition I read a number of my poems and discuss what inspired me to compose them.

When a Young Lady Named Lake
When a young lady named Lake
Leapt out of my birthday cake,
I said, “you are witty
And more than just pretty,
And you have ruined my cake!”

We Love the Wood
We love the wood
By day
And take our delight
In glades.
But when light fades
And day
Is swallowed by night
Fears play.
While Drunk on the Finest Old Wine
While drunk on the finest old wine
I spied a young lady most Divine.
Her name it is Miss Spink
And she gave me a wink,
But perhaps that was merely the wine …!
